Functionality

The Floating Featured Image plugin provides the following functionality:

Allow defaults for the featured0image shortcode to be set via the plugin Settings page; includes default image, taxonomy and alt text.

Allows a set of predefined featured image to be setup which can be applied to the shortcode using the key parameter.

Add the shortcode to a post or page to display either the default, a keyed featured image or one-off using the available parameters.

Demo

Take a look at any post on this site and you’ll see a floating featured image in the top right of every post. The Microsoft Dynamics GP icon is the default and all others, such as the ClassicPress logo on this post, are applied using shortcode parameters.

The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is an existing one which has been brought up to standard brand new one; Filtered Categories.

Functionality

The Filtered Categories plugin adds a new widget which can be used in the sidebar, or other widget areas, which can be set to include or exclude certain categories; widget details are configurable and allows a link to be set to a full category list on a page.

Demo

The Categories widget in this sites sidebar uses this plugin to present a much shortened list of categories; the full category list can be found here.

The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is an existing one which has been brought up to standard; Conditional Links.

Functionality

This plugin allows use of the cpl (conditional-links#download page link cbl (conditional blog link) shortcode with a slug parameter to link to a page whether it exists or not; the content between the opening and closing shortcode tags will be the text visible to visitors. If the page exists it will be linked, otherwise standard unlinked text will be displayed.

This allows you to publish pages while the site is being build without having broken links, but as soon as the page, or post, is published, the link will immediately be present and working without the need to go back and edit a page).

The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is an existing one which has been standardised; Comment Validator.

Functionality

This plugin is a fairly simple one which prevents comment shorter or longer than admin defined lengths being submitted. There is also an option to prevent unregistered users using the name of a registered user when posting.

Demo

To try this comment, try leaving a comment on this post which is shorter than 10 characters.

The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is a brand new plugin; Code.

Functionality

I’ve never found a code formatting plugin which I liked so I’ve been manually formatting code to post for a while; this plugin is still manually formatting, but provides a set of shortcodes which can be sued to colour text for SQL and PHP.

A copyright message can be set via the plugins settings page and output using a shortcode.

The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is one which has been standardised; Breadcrumbs.

Functionality

The Breadcrumbs plugin allows pages to have breadcrumbs added at the top or bottom; this shows the navigation route through the site to the current from the homepage allowing users to easily navigate back any numbers of levels they choose.
